GOD IS AT WORK

among Buddhist people around the world

THAILAND

The people of Thailand are Buddhist but also animistic. They worship and fear spirits and believe that they control every aspect of their lives. They also believe that one of the most important parts of being Thai is being Buddhist. God’s truth is changing many Thai people from spirit worshipers to Jesus followers.

VIETNAM

There are many villages in Vietnam where people have suffered from war, poverty, and disease. They believe that they can improve their lives through worship and sacrifice. Through medical aid, missionaries are able to share the love of Jesus with these hurting people.

CAMBODIA

The Buddhist people of Cambodia work hard to earn merit. They believe if they give money to build Buddhist temples, or feed Buddhist monks, they will earn merit. They hope with enough merit they will enter Nirvana. Only 3% of the population has her heard the gospel.

WHERE THEY LIVE

Burmese people live in the Asian country of Myanmar. It is a country with many wars and fighting between people groups and the government.

WHAT THEY NEED

People living in Myanmar need safety from war and persecution. They need bibles in their language so they can learn about Jesus. They also need missionaries who are willing to live among them and disciple them.

HOW THEY LIVE

Life in Myanmar is hard. Because of all the war, people do not feel safe and are often not protected by the government. Families live together in one room huts and work long hours in rice fields or on fishing boats.

HOW TO PRAY

Pray that Burmese people who hear and believe the good news of God. Pray that they would find freedom from the evil spirits that they fear, and that they would find peace as a nation. Pray that they would receive Burmese bibles and read them.

WHAT THEY BELIEVE

Most Burmese people are Buddhist but also worship and fear spirits called “nats.” Each home has an altar where they make sacrifices to nats, and a statue of Buddha.

WHAT TO GIVE

$5 provides one Burmese bible. Every dollar raised will also get matched by Sonlight and goes towards sending more missionaries to the field. Please consider how many bibles you may be able to help fund.
